Q's about Ctest

[yelaine17]

My Citizenship interview is coming soon, I am just wondering what kind of questions they usually ask? Are those questions only come from the 100 questions from the US citizenship website? Any trick questions? History questions?

The "Official" list is now 96 rather than 100. From everything I have read, the interviewing officer asks 6-12 questions from this list and rarely anything else. I did read a couple of unusual posts describing an officer asking questions from a PREVIOUS list. However, this is so unusual and you are allowed to get a couple wrong anyway, I have not bothered to learn too much other than the 96 answers (several of which are effectively duplicates anyway !!!!)

You will be asked (orally) to correctly answer six out of ten questions from the list of 96 official questions. In addition, you will be asked to write a (trivial) spoken sentence, and read aloud a (similarly trivial) written sentence.

The remainder of the interview will consist of you answering questions related to your N-400 application. At the simplest level this means confirming every line item as the IO steps through each section. If something draws the officer's attention, they may well dig into certain subject areas more thoroughly, and ask for backup documentation. (e.g. citations/convictions)
